Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Future of Nursing explores how nurses' roles, responsibilities, and education should change significantly to meet the increased demand for care that will be created by health care reform and to advance improvements in America's increasingly complex health system. At more than 3 million in number, nurses make up the single largest segment of the health care work force. They also spend the greatest amount of time in delivering patient care as a profession. Nurses therefore have valuable insights and unique abilities to contribute as partners with other health care professionals in improving the quality and safety of care as envisioned in the Affordable Care Act (ACA) enacted this year. Nurses should be fully engaged with other health professionals and assume leadership roles in redesigning care in the United States. To ensure its members are well-prepared, the profession should institute residency training for nurses, increase the percentage of nurses who attain a bachelor's degree to 80 percent by 2020, and double the number who pursue doctorates. Furthermore, regulatory and institutional obstacles-including limits on nurses' scope of practice-should be removed so that the health system can reap the full benefit of nurses' training, skills, and knowledge in patient care. In this book, the Institute of Medicine makes recommendations for an action-oriented blueprint for the future of nursing.

Download or read book Moving from Your Associate to Your Baccalaureate Nursing Degree written by Nancy Duphily and published by . This book was released on 2021-12-16 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Moving from Your Associate to Your Baccalaureate Nursing Degree is designed to welcome and celebrate the experience, knowledge, and expertise practicing nurses bring to the academic table as they pursue a baccalaureate degree in nursing. The book aligns with Institute of Medicine competencies and emphasizes leadership and management, ethics and decision-making, critical thinking, evidence-based practice, caring, collaboration, communication, and self-reflective skills, all supported by literature and practice examples. As future change agents, readers are asked to reflect on current issues and trends influencing nursing education and practice. They are challenged to choose a concept of interest, develop a PICOT question, search the literature, and critique a selected article to determine if it is, indeed, scholarly. Readers also recall critical incidents and examine nursing theorists whose theories align with their own individual, current practice. Quotes from nursing leaders, nursing theorists, and members of the interdisciplinary healthcare team, as well as stories from practicing nurses, exemplify and support current evidence in the profession. Chapter exercises provide readers the time and opportunity to reflect on their professional practice. Moving from Your Associate to Your Baccalaureate Nursing Degree is designed to help nursing students better comprehend those processes inherent in the successful transition to the role of the baccalaureate-prepared nurse.

Book excerpt: The question of how to best prepare nurses for practice continues to be debated extensively. The crux of the debate is whether a bachelor of science in nursing (BSN) should be required of all registered nurses in the United States or whether an associate degree in nursing (ADN) and diploma programs adequately prepare novice nurses for practice. Most of the literature on the relative effectiveness of BSN and ADN programs is inconclusive or dated. Most relevant studies focus on one type of program and do not directly compare how BSN and ADN graduates perform on the job. The findings of the few studies that do compare outcomes of BSN and ADN programs are mixed. What the literature does suggest is that the differences between ADN and BSN programs may not greatly affect nurses' ability to perform basic nursing tasks and that both programs prepare registered nurses for entry-level positions in most health care settings. The following lessons for those involved in planning and delivering nursing education were identified from the literature: (1) move carefully and work together; (2) conduct further research and use it; (3) create clearer career ladders; (4) differentiate between novice and advanced practice; and (5) ease movement between the ADN and BSN.
